> Since JDK 7, when we use the standard decorator for JUnit tests, e.g.
> return TestConfiguration.defaultSuite(AggBuiltinTest.class);
> the order in which the test fixtures get run is indeterministic. This is undesirable
because it doesn't add much coverage to the product and makes the tests more brittle than
they need to be.
> We should use TestConfiguration#orderedSuite instead.
